- Make the configuration more clear by accepting the list of ignored labels during sharding
via a dedicated command-line flag - -remoteWrite.shardByURL.ignoreLabels.
This prevents from overloading the meaning of -remoteWrite.shardByURL.labels command-line flag.
- Removed superfluous memory allocation per each processed sample if sharding by remote storage is enabled.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/5938
Remove description for -search.maxExportDuration and -search.maxStatusRequestDuration command-line flags
from the 'Resource usage limits' chapter, since these flags are rarely used for limiting resource usage
and they are already documented in the 'List of command-line flags' chapter.
- Fix docs for new functions at app/vmselect/graphite/functions.json
- Properly drain series lists on errors in aggregateSeriesListsGeneric() and aggregateSeriesList()
- Add links to docs for the added functions at docs/CHANGELOG.md
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/5809
- Allow specifying only a single HTTP header for reading auth tokens via -httpAuthHeader command-line flag.
This is better from security PoV, since this prevents from accidental reading of auth token from undesired
HTTP header. By default the -httpAuthHeader equals to Authorization. When it is overridden, then
auth token isn't read from Authorization header - it is read only from the specified header.
- Document the -httpAuthHeader command-line flag at https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmauth/#reading-auth-tokens-from-other-http-headers

This reverts commit cb23685681.
Reason for revert: the "fix" may hide programming bugs related to incorrect creation of folders
before their use. This may complicate detecting and fixing such bugs in the future.
There are the following fixes for the issue https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5985 :
- To configure the OS to do not drop data from the system-wide temporary directory (aka /tmp).
- To run VictoriaMetrics with -cacheDataPath command-line flag, which points to the directory,
which cannot be removed automatically by the OS.
The case when the user accidentally deletes the directory with some files created by VictoriaMetrics
shouldn't be considered as expected, so VictoriaMetrics shouldn't try resolving this case automatically.
It is much better from operation and debuggability PoV is to crash with the clear `directory doesn't exist` error
in this case.
The remotewrite.Stop() expects that there are no pending calls to TryPush().
This means that the ingestionRateLimiter.Register() must be unblocked inside TryPush() when calling remotewrite.Stop().
Provide remotewrite.StopIngestionRateLimiter() function for unblocking the rate limiter before calling the remotewrite.Stop().
While at it, move the rate limiter into lib/ratelimiter package, since it has two users.
Also move the description of the feature to the correct place at docs/CHANGELOG.md.
Also cross-reference -remoteWrite.rateLimit and -maxIngestionRate command-line flags.

Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/5900
Custom HTTP headers are set via net/http.Header.Set or net/http.Header.Add functions.
These functions always convert header keys to canonical form. So the change at b577413d3b
isn't visible to users of VictoriaMetrics components.
There is no need in documenting this change at docs/CHANGELOG.md, since it doesn't give any useful information to users.

Signed-off-by: Zakhar Bessarab <z.bessarab@victoriametrics.com>
* lib/storage: consistently use MaxTimestamp to determine deduplication/downsampling rules
Using MinTimestamp leads to applying downsampling to parts which are only partially covered by downsampling rule.
For example, partition covers range [1000-2000]. At t=2100 and rule offset 500 data with t=2100-500 => 1600 must be downsampled. The range check against MinTimestamp evaluates to true even though partition contains range which must not be downsampled - [1600:2000].

* Follow-up
- Apply the first matching downsampling period if multiple filters match the given time series.
This allows fine-tuning the downsampling config for the specific needs.
- Take into account downsampling filters during search queries.
- Reduce the difference between community and enterprise branches. This should simplify further maintenance of these branches.
- Properly parse series filters with colons inside them.
- Document the feature at docs/CHANGELOG.md.

* lib/storage: adds metrics for downsampling
vm_downsampling_partitions_scheduled - shows the number of parts, that must be downsampled
vm_downsampling_partitions_scheduled_size_bytes - shows total size in bytes for parts, the must be donwsampled
These two metrics answer the questions - is downsampling running? how many parts scheduled for downsampling and how many of them currently downsampled? Storage space that it occupies.

During shutdown period of vmalert, remotewrite client retrieve all pending time series from buffer queue, compose them into 1 batch and execute remote write.
This final batch may exceed the limit of -remoteWrite.maxBatchSize, and be rejected by the receiver (gateway, vmcluster or others).
This changes ensures that even during shutdown vmalert won't exceed the max batch size limit for remote write
destination.

To horizontally scale streaming aggregation, you might want to deploy a separate hashing tier
of vmagents that route to a separate aggregation tier. The hashing tier should shard by all labels
except the instance-level labels, to ensure the input metrics are routed correctly to the aggregator
instance responsible for those labels.
For this to achieve we introduce `remoteWrite.shardByURL.inverseLabels` flag to inverse logic of `remoteWrite.shardByURL.labels`

Store the deadline when the metricID entries must be deleted from indexdb
if metricID->metricName entry isn't found after the deadline. This should
make the code more clear comparing the the previous version, where the timestamp
of the first metricID->metricName lookup miss was stored in missingMetricIDs.
Remove the misleading comment about the importance of the order for creating entries
in the inverted index when registering new time series. The order doesn't matter,
since any subset of the created entries can become visible for search
before any other subset after registering in indexdb.

vmselect uses a cache folder in file system for two purposes:
1. Storing rollup cache results on shutdown;
2. Storing temporary search results from vmstorage during query executions.
It could happen that cache folder is deleted accidentally by user, or by OS
during cleanup routines. This would cause vmselect to:
1. panic on /metrics call, because `MustGetFreeSpace` will fail;
2. return query error user, as it won't be able to store temporary search results.
The changes in this commit are the following:
1. Make `MustGetFreeSpace` to try re-creating the cache folder if it is missing;
2. Make vmselect to try re-creating the cache folder if it can't persist tmp search
results.
